6 df - report file system disk space usage
7
9 df [OPTION]... [FILE]...
10
12 This manual page documents the GNU version of df. df displays the
13 amount of disk space available on the file system containing each file
14 name argument. If no file name is given, the space available on all
15 currently mounted file systems is shown. Disk space is shown in 1K
16 blocks by default, unless the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is
17 set, in which case 512-byte blocks are used.
18
19 If an argument is the absolute file name of a disk device node contain‐
20 ing a mounted file system, df shows the space available on that file
21 system rather than on the file system containing the device node. This
22 version of df cannot show the space available on unmounted file sys‐
23 tems, because on most kinds of systems doing so requires very non‐
24 portable intimate knowledge of file system structures.
25
27 Show information about the file system on which each FILE resides, or
28 all file systems by default.
29
30 Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options
31 too.
32
33 -a, --all
34 include pseudo, duplicate, inaccessible file systems
35
36 -B, --block-size=SIZE
37 scale sizes by SIZE before printing them; e.g., '-BM' prints
38 sizes in units of 1,048,576 bytes; see SIZE format below
39
40 --direct
41 show statistics for a file instead of mount point
42
43 -h, --human-readable
44 print sizes in powers of 1024 (e.g., 1023M)
45
46 -H, --si
47 print sizes in powers of 1000 (e.g., 1.1G)
48
49 -i, --inodes
50 list inode information instead of block usage
51
52 -k like --block-size=1K
53
54 -l, --local
55 limit listing to local file systems
56
57 --no-sync
58 do not invoke sync before getting usage info (default)
59
60 --output[=FIELD_LIST]
61 use the output format defined by FIELD_LIST, or print all fields
62 if FIELD_LIST is omitted.
63
64 -P, --portability
65 use the POSIX output format
66
67 --sync invoke sync before getting usage info
68
69 --total
70 elide all entries insignificant to available space, and produce
71 a grand total
72
73 -t, --type=TYPE
74 limit listing to file systems of type TYPE
75
76 -T, --print-type
77 print file system type
78
79 -x, --exclude-type=TYPE
80 limit listing to file systems not of type TYPE
81
82 -v (ignored)
83
84 --help display this help and exit
85
86 --version
87 output version information and exit
88
89 Display values are in units of the first available SIZE from
90 --block-size, and the DF_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE and BLOCKSIZE environ‐
91 ment variables. Otherwise, units default to 1024 bytes (or 512 if
92 POSIXLY_CORRECT is set).
93
94 The SIZE argument is an integer and optional unit (example: 10K is
95 10*1024). Units are K,M,G,T,P,E,Z,Y (powers of 1024) or KB,MB,...
96 (powers of 1000). Binary prefixes can be used, too: KiB=K, MiB=M, and
97 so on.
98
99 FIELD_LIST is a comma-separated list of columns to be included. Valid
100 field names are: 'source', 'fstype', 'itotal', 'iused', 'iavail',
101 'ipcent', 'size', 'used', 'avail', 'pcent', 'file' and 'target' (see
102 info page).
